Abstract

In recent years, higher combustion efficiency and lower emissions are required on engine development and therefore higher combustion control is necessary. To realize higher combustion control in reciprocating engine, cycle to cycle flow rate measurement is important. Especially it is a key factor to control HCCI combustion. Traditional laminar flow meter has a problem in responsibility. However, fast response differential pressure transducer allows cycle to cycle dynamical flow measurement. The availability of fast-response laminar flow meter on cycle-to-cycle flow rate measurement is shown in this paper.
